A 12-week tour of how the human body is built and how it works — from cells and tissues to the skeletal, muscular, nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary and reproductive systems.
A 12-week journey from early humans and the first cities to empires, revolutions, world wars and today’s globalized world, taught through six historical-thinking lenses: cause, power, perspective, system, change and evidence.
A 12-week, systems-based study of Earth's atmosphere, water, land and life — ecosystems, biodiversity, natural resources, energy, pollution and sustainability — built around real data and local investigations.
Aerospace Engineering introduces how aircraft, rockets and spacecraft are designed. Students study forces of flight, propulsion, materials and orbital motion, and think like engineers through design challenges and tradeoff decisions.
Economics teaches how people, businesses and governments make choices with limited resources. Students learn supply and demand, markets, money and banking, and personal finance, using real-world examples and data.
Students learn how government works in the United States—from the Constitution and the three branches to elections, rights, media, and public policy—and practice informed civic participation.
A global-systems course that connects history, geography, economics, politics, environment and technology. Students map how states, trade, migration, climate, health and conflict interact, and finish with an evidence-based policy brief.
Learn how scientists ask testable questions, design experiments, measure and analyze data, and communicate findings in formal lab reports, ending with an independent investigation and research symposium.
Explore how scientists document scenes and analyze fingerprints, trace evidence, DNA, toxicology, and digital evidence, while learning to reason carefully about uncertainty, bias, and ethics.
An inquiry-based science course on Earth materials, plate tectonics, weather, climate, oceans, the solar system, stars, and cosmology, using real data and hands-on investigations.
A lab-based chemistry course covering matter and measurement, atomic structure and the periodic table, chemical bonding, reactions and balancing, stoichiometry, and thermochemistry, ending with a cumulative final exam and capstone.
This course teaches writing together with the planning skills that make writing possible. Students learn to break assignments into steps, organize ideas, manage time and revise, so they can start, sustain and finish written work…
